The Jacksonville Jaguars' top three running backs are dealing with injuries, but Yeldon was able to play through his last week, making him the best of a bad lot entering Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Ty Montgomery resurfaced to lead the Packers in rushing last week, and his dual position eligibility give him a shot at relevance against a tough Seahawks defense that is allowing only 99.3 yards per game rushing.

Paul Perkins had seven carries for 38 yards to lead the New York Giants in rushing last Sunday, though he still played a lesser role in the offense than starter Rashad Jennings due to the latter's receiving and blocking abilities, making Perkins a risky play against a tough Dallas Cowboys defense that is fourth in the NFL in production allowed to opposing running backs.

Bilal Powell touched the ball just once on Monday Night Football, but has a chance to rebound on Sunday against the league's worst rushing defense of the San Francisco 49ers, a unit that's allowed a staggering 169.3 rushing yards per game in 2016.

Playing from behind, the Saints ran the ball a total of 12 times last week and their willingness to abandon the run game bodes poorly for Tim Hightower on Sunday against the Bucs, who have allowed just one 100-yard rusher this season.

Jerick McKinnon scored and averaged 4.6 yards per carry last week, two things he hadn't done since Week 4 against the Giants, giving him a but of momentum entering Sunday's matchup with the Jaguars 24th ranked rush defense that allows 115.6 yards per game.

Matt Asiata saw a three-game scoring streak snapped last week and has six or fewer carries in three straight games giving him minimal upside against a Jaguars 24th ranked rush defense that allows 115.6 yards per game.

Wendell Smallwood was held to 19 yards on eight carries and three unsuccessful targets last Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals, and with Ryan Mathews expected to return this week Smallwood is facing a return to a pure back-up role against the Washington Redskins.

Corey Grant is a little used on offense, but has the distinction of being the healthiest running back on the Jacksonville Jaguars' roster entering Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings' 17th-ranked rushing defense.

Christine Michael saw an expanded role in his second week with the Packers last Sunday, but will continue to split carries with at least Ty Montgomery entering a matchup with his former team in the Seahawks, who allow only 99.3 yards per game on the ground.

Alfred Blue returned to action last week after missing two games with a calf injury, but needs a significant injury to Lamar Miller to have any value in Week 14 against the Indianapolis Colts, who rank 20th in run defense.

Justin Forsett hasn't seen action since Week 7, but could see a handful of snaps right away as Devontae Booker's main backup given familiarity with Gary Kubiak's offense from their days together in Baltimore.

James Starks saw just four carries last week and appears to be on the outside looking in of a three-man committee with Ty Montgomery and Christine Michael entering a matchup with the Seahawks 14th ranked run defense.
